This is amazing, I love this kind of issues so much, of course I want to know how he did it but right now I don't care really, I just enjoyed it so much.
>>95302992
So Hal was able to reach Flash levels of speed???
BTW thank you so much for the storytime.
>>
Fuck this issue was good. Norrin, what else haven't you storytimed? I can do the rest if you hit the thread limit.
>>
>>95302966
why does this post exist
>>
>>95303015

Both of the GL books are fantastic at the moment, which is a very pleasant surprise. After Johns left the books it fell into the sort of tailspin that seemed to suggest that the quality of the story while he was in charge was a fluke, but they've certainly recovered since then.
>>
>>95302846

Even though the last arc ended badly and some anons were REEing about the history of the old gods this has been a solid arc and the art is fucking nice. Great issue with a lot of feels.
>>
Rafa and Jordi fucking killed it with the art this issue. Really felt the speed and the strain it was putting on Hal.
>>
Is Sora still evil?
>>
>>95303407
>Both
strong disagree with you there I think the other one has been pretty consistently trash, and I've been actively keeping up with it

but let's keep this thread to praising the masterpiece that is Hal Jordan & GL
>>
This was great. I feel like this could have even been a single issue character piece in an annual or something and wouldn't have missed a beat
>>
>>95303646
yeah, they did a solid job turning an "big event" issue into something worth reading on its own
>>
>>95303309
Isn't Mister Miracle out this week? If so, please.
>>
fuck why can't Kyle just get his own solo series
this stupid book is going to be on my pull list tomorrow and its totally worthless
>>
>>95303703
Alright, will do as soon as scans go up.
>>
>>95303788
Red Hood is way more imperative please
>>
>>95303851
Still no scans for it. Might take an hour before they go up but I'll do it as soon as they go online.
>>
>>95303886
No you won't! I'll do it! And I'll use your name so they'll never know which of us got there first!
>>
>>95302924
Did he name his ring after himself?
>>
>>95304025
Okay, thanks Anon.
>>
>>95302924
Hal looks so sad ;_;
>>
This is the first Venditti issue I've thoroughly enjoyed in a long time

For once it actually feels like he WANTED to write Hal and the outcome was very nice
>>
Is this shit any good? I coudn't even finish Venditti terrible stories on New 52. Is any better or same bullshit?

Venditti always kill everything he touched.
>>
>>95304865
Hal n Pals is miles better than his new 52 GL, although it's felt pretty mediocre until the last couple issues
>>
>>95302997
damn, hal. smug as usual
>>
>>95304865
It is not.
>>
This sandoval guy is a real catch for DC, still drawing for hal and pals for a while now but I can see him being given big events in the future
>>
>>95304877
When I saw the story that Jessica and Baz were trained by Kyle and Guy I was kinda curious with all that Sinestro Corps and GL working together. I coudn't even finish Venditti's New 52, but I will have a shot.

I really love Kyle and Johns run, but let's give a chance. Thank you!

>>95302937
Who the hell is Bruce Wayne?

No shit, get your life back and go back to chasing girls Hal, its been forever
>>
>>95305032
>This sandoval guy is a real catch for DC
not really
>>
>>95303021
this is so anime
But I loved this issue pretty much like the Darkseid War tie-in, dammit why does Venditti have to be so inconsistent
only problem I have is why did the beams not zero in on Lightray once he stopped >>95303012
>>
>>95305371
It'd be nice to actually see Hal doing Hal stuff instead of just being reminded that he doesn't do anything except be a GL anymore but I guess I'll take what I can get
>>
>Hal gets a visit from his dear daddy's ghost

What a pile of disgusting sappy schlock.
>>
>>95302970
Why do they always say to stay grounded? To keep yourself grounded? Why? Why can't we just forget the ground entirely and just fly, freely? Completely detach ourselves from this mundane physical reality, and just leave to explore the vast freedom of who we were always meant to be?
>>
>>95306219
When Hal gets too detached he usually starts trying to kill himself

Holy fucking shit.
>>
>>95303645
Green Lanterns has worse art, but better story. In comparison, the previous arc of Hal and Pals had a lackluster ending.
>>
>>95304247
No, he's saying "Speak Hal", like "Speak English."
>>
>>95302929
Would it have been better if Hal's dad was green?
>>
>>95308499
Would look weird in a green construct, besides he's wasn't a construct so that'd be weirder.
>>
>>95308499
Like Hal was making a construct himself?
>>
>>95306219
>Why can't we just forget the ground entirely and just fly, freely?
Well don't forget Hal is literally living will right now whose only way to stay human shape is by grounding himself.
>>
>>95305742
>why did the beams not zero in on Lightray once he stopped
Probably targeted Highfather, not Lightray.
>>
>>95308551
Yes, or rather his subconsciousness. Given Hal's current state who knows how in control he is of his power.
>>
>>95306219
Yeah, I get it especially since Hal's personality is on unlimited freedom but at the same time I think everyone needs something to anchor them lest they forget who they are, y'know? I mean the one time Hal became really free from the universe he turned into a god and lived out his days in his world world fucking his construct wife and raising his construct kid (TDK Strikes again)
>>
>>95303748

I know your pain anon. Our time will come.
>>
>>95308554
I know, it's just... eh, I'm the type of person that doesn't really like being grounded. This mundane physical reality where everyone's so caught up in politics and the economy and working to survive, and stuff...I just don't care about all that stuff. I love the sky, I want to learn how to fly without wings or technology to assist, I want to go beyond the impossible, go beyond the limits of time and space and reality itself. Even in spiritual stuff I read, I keep hearing how it's important to "ground yourself". Like how the Flashes need lightning rods to ground themself or else they'll completely merge with the speed force, as if that's a bad thing.

What's so important about this mundane boring physical reality that Flash and Hal and everyone has to keep themselves grounded there? Why does Hal need to ground himself and keep human form, when he could just let go entirely, and rise up into the living embodiment of willpower, beyond simple humanity?

because then you forget who you are, and begin to fuck shit up for everyone.
>>
>>95302959
>Hal's daddy is impressed by the cosmic stuff his son is bolting through

Best part of the issue.
>>
>>95308551
that or as Martin said, maybe it was due to Omega effect proximity since he's purple-ish?

>>95309181
it's not an unknown and unexplored ground, Kingdom Come and Miller's Dark Knight both have GLs that detach themselves from Earth
>>
>>95308248
Well done to the editor then because you can't put a comma in the middle of that sentence.
>>
>>95309181

Because you can never truly escape your physical form while living. The sooner you learn to accept your reality, while also embracing your ability to "fly" (metaphorically or spiritually speaking), the sooner you will know true freedom of the soul.

As long as you keep trying to escape, to avoid, to reject, you are actively fighting an unwinnable battle, going against a current, and grounding yourself even more, ironically.

That doesn't mean you need to give up your dreams, or conform to being caught up in mundane conflicts such as politics or economy.

The most important thing you'll ever do is find yourself, and your place (and peace) in this world full of people who are very different, but also very similar, to you.

The options are out there, in this physical world, if you only find the Will to go looking, and the strength to endure and learn.
>>
>>95306219
Because the last time Hal went full Hal he went Parallax and POOLS CLOSED reality.
>>
>>95309529
....I see. Thank you, anon, for opening my eyes to that.
>>
>>95309181
Because only by working with limitations do you truly access the greatest of human features: creativity.

It is only by accepting things beyond your control that you learn to grow beyond yourself and become greater and larger than if you had a universe that could just bend to your will.
>>
>>95302904
If the beams can take time out to bend around and spiral back and forth, then they can just go in a straight line and hit them.
>>
>>95303748
Because he is a 90's character. He must go the way of Wally, Connor, Bart,

Just be glad he still exists.
>>
>>95309473
It's a cute scene
>>
>>95302992
>>95302997
>>95303005
Anyone else wonder how could Hal hear what Lightray was saying to Highfather?
>>
>>95302897
>Highfather has shitty New 52 design and not the one seen in New Gods Special and Mister Miracle
Huh?
>>
>>95302929
OH SHIT, ITS A G-G-GHOST!
>>
>>95311743
They are two different stories that take place at two different times anon
>>
>>95303005
Why's this comic got to bury Lightray?
>>
I'm calling it now. Space Cabbie was Rip's father.
>>
Can Orion outrun the Flash or Superman?
>>
>>95312281
But Booster is Rip's father
>>
>>95307047
Imagine if he did, Flashfags would never recover
>>
>>95311743
Looks like he broke into Barda's closet

Wait, wouldn't the answer to construct breaking apart from speed be don't use a construct? It's not like Hal needs a green jet to fly real fast.
>>
>>95309529
I wasn't expecting to get hit by a philosophy bomb today.
>>
>>95304247
>>95308248
I thought Hal was doing a 2001: space odyssey joke.
>>
>>95312773
But Highfather does.
>>
>>95312536
>>95307047
Whelp, that does help it fall under the whole
>only limited by imagination
thing they have been repeating for decades. I bet more than a few lanterns can imagine going really really fast

Plus these guys are supposed to routinely patrol everything from the center of the universe to the edge of expanding space still stretching from the big bang. You need to go really really fast to do that.

thanks OP

M-MULTIVERSAL DRIFTING!!
>>
>>95302992
If omega beams could kill Highfather then how has he been considered a match for Darkseid all these years?

If Darkseid seems to have an instant kill Highfather beam he could use at any point.
>>
>>95312919
During, IIRC, Blackest Night John tried to remake Mosaic with his ring, but his willpower exceeded the ring capabilities
>>
>>95314552
Kirby Highfather was depicted as a match for Darkseid. Darksied Omega'd the Forever People into the past and Highfather just summoned them right back.

Here he's vulnerable to Omega because plot.

I'm fine for it because

1. It was a cool issue and a great moment for Hal.

2. The New Gods are god sphere beings who have multiple iterations and versions. This Highfather could just be a weak version.
>>
>>95314555
It makes sense that the rings have a limit. They carry a charge from what's basically a step-down transformer for the central battery.

Which Connor? They're both gone
>>
>>95314555
He remade Fatality's planet complete with every tree, rock, city and person on it before he overclocked the ring
>>
>>95303748
Why would the worst Green Lantern get his own book? If anyone should it should be my man Guy.
>>
>>95303748
Because no one would read it

Kyle sucks and miserable failure after miserable failure from making a Kyle books shows that only like 10 people on Earth give a fuck if he lives or dies
